Leaf Lock posted:I hope you actually aren't being optimistic when it comes to Nintendo. Especially online stuff. If so, I have a trick to share. Locate the nearest mirror, look into it, hold up your hand and raise the middle finger. You have now time traveled to a time when you know the truth about whatever Nintendo business it is you're wondering about. If you're just being sarcastic then carry on. Sarcasm is appropriate in these situations. I actually hope that Nintendo Online fails and that Mario goes to the PS4.

Elman posted:If anything, save upload would allow Nintendo to put those saves through some kind of validation so people won't be able to do blatant stuff like getting unreleased items. People would find a way to fake the validation. There's next to nothing that can be done to prevent what this system is supposed to prevent, and it's probably not even worth fighting it. The biggest problem here is that the single-player campaign is basically woven into the multiplayer because of item and weapon unlocks, so your options are: 1) Require online validation for single-player and multiplayer, effectively making Splatoon 2 online-only. 2) Have two separate saves, an offline client-side single-player save and an online server-side multiplayer save, that run checks on each other for validation. Unless Splatoon 2 is built to change to either of these, you might get one of these in Splatoon 3.

kidfresca posted:who cares about people subjecting themselves to the tedium that is save scumming gear. There was an early bug where an EXP Ticket in one part of Octo Valley would respawn every time you entered the area, and this was explicitly fixed, despite the fact that the only benefit to levels is getting 1 extra Sea Snail at a time. Nintendo does not want to give anyone any advantages, even if they don't really matter, and it's apparent that they'll nuke cloud saves over it. It's dumb, sure, but until the present a fix, all we can do is bitch on the internet about it. But remember, this isn't a Nintendo-exclusive position. The NBA2K games aren't getting cloud saves, and neither is Dead Cells, for some reason. I don't really get what the deal is.

kidfresca posted:The explanation is never going to be more complicated than "Nintendo is backwards and weird," but they are spiting 5+ million players to stop the very small amount of players who were too lazy to use the easily available/accessible save editor in the 4 months when that stuff was a free-for-all but also somehow not too lazy to waste all of their free time deleting and restoring their save for more chances at the RNG machine instead of using the system they purposely added to make gear building accessible at the normal rate you play the game. I agree, but again, companies that are not Nintendo are also doing it, so we need to understand why multiple companies are being "backwards and weird" about it. Hell, back on PS3, one of the Dragon Age games explicitly barred you from backing up its save data, and the save data couldn't even be moved via system transfer if you got a new console. I don't think anyone knows why that is, even now. Companies are just weird about save data.

I encountered what I assumed was a hacker in Mario Kart 8 DX, because they were 200+CC speeding around the track and had a point total of over 44,000. I sent them a friend request, and they accepted! It said they'd only been playing for about 40 hours, and shortly after, they were gone from my friend's list and from my recent players list. MK8DX doesn't have a report system, and I have every reason to believe they were banned. So silver linings, I guess.

when will people stop using wireless connections for multiplayer online games like, the FGC has PSAs every other day that are just a picture of an ethernet cable

In Training posted:Yeah it's just nonsense anecdotal stuff. I'm sure it's better to use the cord. I usually play with an Ethernet unless I'm just doing salmon run and don't want to swap cables around. It's also a little annoying that, let's say I was playing Splatoon portable on wireless, and I slot it into the dock, the switch won't connect to Ethernet unless I fully close Splatoon 2 for some reason. I guess it doesn't want to DC me or something? It does this with every game. You basically have to put the Switch to sleep and wake it up to have it reestablish what your connection type is.

New Shifty Station sucks, because if you take the middle, you are at a huge advantage, and the only avenue for approach is to go straight for that middle. There are options for taking it back, but a good blaster/sniper team can basically hold it alone.

They depend a lot on user reporting through the app, because anti-cheat wasn't great for a while. I have encountered at least one person who used the dodge roll with a Splattershot as if they were Octo Expansion Agent 3.

And given that they didn't even bother translating the names of the Spy gear, I doubt we'll be getting any of the exclusive gear in the future. I still need that Emperor outfit.

Neddy Seagoon posted:This Splatfest map is pretty loving wretched. It's got the same fundamental issue Arowana Mall does in that there's only one real way to get up the hill, and if you're not stupid enough to push past the hill you've got the map locked down. You can jump on that one flooder next to the center and cause a lot of problems.

Neddy Seagoon posted:Oh yes, the small platform that moves randomly and is in plain sight of four people just standing on the hill shooting anything that looks their way. Great place to be, especially if one of them has a Blaster . I mean, it worked for me! Friends were on cover fire with missiles and the Bloblobber, and getting people off the center was totally doable.

Neddy Seagoon posted:Splatoon has eSport integration stuff for its tournaments iirc, so it's not a big leap to part of the deal being Microsoft streaming Nintendo stuff through their service. Pokemon's a little more odd, but who knows what's lurking in Sword/Shield for online multiplayer. Mixer has some really cool stat visualizations integrated into their system, so having on-screen numbers can provide some battle context for viewers.

I love that almost every time Pearl wins, she raps, but every time she loses, her attitude reverses so hard that it becomes negative hype. She's the worst loser. Of course, I expect nothing less from the gremlin demon that designed Camp Triggerfish.
